Allocations Stephen Deems
Login & Profile Information discussions kicked off last week:
ACO + Operations + Allocations + Support team members met to discuss goals, work previously completed, and how information is currently managed
Link to agenda: https://access-ci.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ACP/pages/1509425173
Have some initial marching orders:
Developers are collating all data fields that we currently collect across several webpages/utilities
ACO will line out a proposed wireframe for how the login process should work
ACO + Allocations will work on unified vocabulary that corresponds to the data fields
Broader team will work towards a timeline and individual milestones
Work to improve collection of ACCESS User Publications is underway
Work ranges from minor edits to webpages across the ACCESS landscape to more opportunities to upload publications when engaging with the allocations process (e.g. when someone requests an Extension, Supplement, or Exchange).

EAB @Chuck P
report from June 20 EAB meeting received - some clarification needed from EAB Chair. Will circulate as soon as those are resolved.
Sept 4th EAB Virtual Meeting scheduled - agenda partially developed
Support and Allocations will be the focus service providers at this meeting
OpenCI John Towns - absent
Google Workspace Users - audited
Email list review - did everyone review?
NSF Sharon and Puri
no updates
John has sent out some wording that the PIs have put together - about resources in ACCESS and how to define them
We will receive a short (couple of sentences) that covers what she has said verbally - ACSS resources, other national computing systems that NSF funded, are the priorities
There will not be any change in NSFs stance
There will be 5 systems coming online this year - start working on integrating these resources now - they are all public record - no point to wait
Hoping to be at the Buffalo meeting along with another Program Officer from Buffalo
Milestone Review - Shannon did let Dina know to update her items - I believe they are completed
